Nancy Sinatra wore them! |
I saw them on the Sony and Cher Show
Coveted them
like any 9 year-old girl covets
horses and 10 year-old boys
My mother said no
Too expensive
Besides, I'd soon outgrow them anyway
But on a birthday shopping trip
to the city with Nana
(We rode the bus; Nana never learned to drive)
I saw them in the Thom McCann window
Nana let me try them on
The salesman zipped and laced them up
I wore them home
feeling like a star
White go-go boots.
Mod Barbies had them too! |

Some things a girl could not go without back in the day, and go-go boots must be high up on the list.
I dated a young lady that had a pair of those and would wear them to work and on dates, etc. to a man of my age she looked nice in them because the skirts had to be shorter for them to look good. I enjoyed Nancy's song, these boots were made for walk'n, qute a bit back then.
Love this! I coveted the white ones, too. ;)
You lucky girl!
and Mod Barbies, there's a blast from the past!
Go-Go boots were the rage in their day, weren't they? I must be about your age! :-)
Way to go, Nana.....!
Sure, why not ~ They look cool too, smiles ~ Good to see you LM ~
If mum says "no" ask Nana.
Great boots, hope you got plenty of wear before you grew out of them
